Answer:
0.1
Step-by-step explanation:
When Juan cut a 1 lb loaf of banana bread into 6 slices, the weight of each slice forms a repeating decimal. A repeating decimal is a decimal number with repeating digit/s.
i.e 
= 0.166666666666666...
To express the total weight for each slice, he should write a bar over 6 to show that the number repeats.
i.e = 0.1
Note that has expressed that the division has 6 as the repeating digit in the decimal number.
Answer:
a. 2.5
b. 2.333
c. 2.85
Step-by-step explanation:
A) 1. subtract -x on both sides 2. to get 3x-1/2=7
3. Add 1/2 on both sides 4. to get 3x=7.5
5. divide 3 on both sides 6. To get... x=2.5
B)1. Same process. 2. x+2=13/3
3. x=13/3-2 4. x= 2.33(repeating)
C) 1. same process. 2. 2x-x/3=3+7/4
3. 2x-x/3=4.75 4. Isolate -x/3
5.-x/3=4.75-2x 6. multiply both sides by 3
7. -x=14.25-6x 8. 5x=14.25
9. x= 2.85
* remember to distribute the 3 to each variable.
Answer. .7157
Explanation. If the decimal is repeating, we must continue the pattern. Hope this helps, let me know if it’s correct so others can use it :)
Good luck.
